West at Tamarack Golf Course

We waited an hour and 15 to get a cart to play. They have two courses and were randomly giving out carts to either course who had the same time. Then the round lasted hours extra because of pace of play. Not worth the price, course wasn’t even that nice.

This course is always a disaster. I had a 12:20 tee time and didn’t tee off til after 1:30. They had a line waiting for carts and were in no rush to get anyone out there. Absolutely awful organization, don’t waste your $75 playing this disaster of a course.

Tough Round. Normally we would have gotten a round completed in 4 hours and we would not have been drenched in rain. Unfortunately the two groups in front of us were so slow that they made molasses appear fast. Starting our round on 10, we were to finish off on the front 9. After five hours we still had three holes to play when the rain poured down. Sad because, 7, 8, and 9 appeared to be the only holes on the whole course with semi-decent grass conditions, which were pathetic in some locations on the course, especially around the greens.

On a bright note, the greens and the sand traps were in excellent condition. The electric carts were also a positive as was the friendly staff and clean restrooms. The beverage cart was around numerous times and there was adequate rain shelter areas on the course.

If you’re looking to play here, don’t waste your money. The course is very beat up, greens are a joke and the pace of play was ridiculous for a Monday afternoon. Golf Now/the course, was charging 59 to play here with a cart. There are so many more well -maintained courses in the area to play, for the same, if not cheaper. This course is not worth the money, hassle, or the electric cart that broke down on us.

Ranger see 3 groups on the tenth tee and does nothing what else can I say

You can’t charge someone 70 dollars when your tee boxes are as terrible as they were. I understand it’s September but drop your price then. Ridiculous to even think that’s a fair price point.

Needs a groundskeeper and a few rangers. No yardage markers no one cleans up ball marks

I accept burnt out fairways from drought, but no yardage markers is not drought related. How hard is it to put in a few colored stakes to show 100, 150 and 200 yards from the green. Even the marks on the cart path were illegible. Also no one fixes ball marks anymore. Finally how about a ranger to enforce pace of play.

I have passed the course on the NJ Turnpike countless times and always made a note that I should play it. What I heard was that it was always on n poor shape.

The course definitely needs work. The dry spring and summer have it burned out in n numerous places and crabgrass around the greens and aprons needs maintenance. That being said, the layout is terrific. It has so much potential to be a terrific course.

The staff, at least those I met, were courteous and professional. The greens rolled true and we’re a good speed.

The property it is on is beautiful.

I hope it keeps getting some serious TLC. Seeding som of the bare areas is a must, but I will definitely play here again

The average rating was due to the drought conditions and nit much the course could actually do. It was dry and hard, with some wicked bounces....But expected given the hot dry weather lately.....The ONLKY issue would be the pace of play, and lack of any rangers pushing the pace to increase. Watching from the tee box as someone on the rough takes 6-7 practice swings, then hits it 2 feet is a bit much. Or watching someone 6 putt on the green........They just need someone to enforce a better pace of play......Stop worrying about cooler enforcement and more about pace of play enforcement........Letting someone bring their own water or gatorade is NOT a crime......You make enough money off the golfers........Otherwise it was a nice time.......

Given the weather we have been having, course held up reasonably well. Kudos to staff.
